Abstract
The economies in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) transformed from planned to those based on the free market following major changes in CEE countries in the late 1980-ies and early 1990-ies. As a consequence, many developments are taking place in the transportation sector and ten major transport corridors were identified to enhance the region's economic development and to strengthen ties and integration with Western Europe. The Danube River has been designated as Corridor VII. It is directly connected to the main Western European IWT artery, the River Rhine via the Main — Danube Canal which was opened in 1992.
